answer text <p> </p><p>The Government has fundamentally reformed regulation of the consumer credit market, including logbook lenders, by transferring responsibility from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) on 1 April 2014.</p><p> </p><p>The Government is very concerned about evidence of consumer detriment in the logbook loan sector, as highlighted in the FCA's recent research paper.</p><p> </p><p>The FCA has identified logbook lenders as a higher risk industry, and as such they will be in the first phase of firms to require full authorisation. Logbook loan providers are also required to meet the FCA's binding rules, and the FCA has said that it “won't hesitate to take action” if they do not put their customers first.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In addition, the Government has asked the Law Commission to look at how to bring the highly complex legislation underpinning logbook loans up to date.</p> more like this

answer text <p /> <p>The DWP Credit Union Expansion Project contract began in May 2013. Around 80 credit unions are currently participating in the project. ABCUL has started delivering the Automated Loan and decision tool to participating credit unions and feedback is that the tool is ensuring loan decisions are faster, consistent and more efficient to deliver. Procurement of an IT banking platform is also being progressed but much remains to be done particularly on achieving sufficient growth for Credit Unions, and DWP continue to support and monitor the project closely</p> more like this
